[0017] The installation of the threaded rod enables rotational movement, and the rotation of the threaded rod facilitates the movement of the sliding module.
[0018] As an improvement, a robotic arm is installed under the sliding module, the robotic arm is matched with the tube straightening module, and the robotic arm is electrically connected to the chain.
[0019] The installation of the robotic arm facilitates the subsequent clamping of the bead strips for product assembly, thus simplifying subsequent production processes.

Detailed Implementation
[0025] To make the content of this utility model easier to understand, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this utility model. Identical components are represented by the same reference numerals. It should be noted that the terms "front," "rear," "left," "right," "up," and "down" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, while the terms "inner" and "outer" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.
[0026] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an automated screw feeding device is characterized by comprising: a support 1 and a ball bar 101, wherein a plurality of rotating balls 102 are rotatably mounted on the ball bar 101.
[0027] A pushing mechanism 2 is installed on the support 1. The pushing mechanism 2 includes a housing 201, which is mounted on the support 1. A vibrating plate 202 is installed on the housing 201. A turntable is installed inside the vibrating plate 202. A first motor is installed inside the housing 201 and is connected to the vibrating plate 202. An auxiliary frame 203 is installed on the vibrating plate 202. Vibrating strips 204 are provided on the vibrating plate 202 and the auxiliary frame 203. The housing 201 provides support, facilitating the installation of corresponding mechanisms. The vibratory plate 202 facilitates rotation, thus promoting the movement of the bead 101 and allowing it to enter the vibratory bar 204. The auxiliary frame 203 facilitates the installation of the vibratory bar 204, providing support without affecting the rotation of the turntable inside the vibratory plate 202. The installation of the vibratory bar 204 facilitates the conveying of the bead 101, thus providing guidance and ensuring that the bead 101 can only pass through the vibratory bar 204 individually.
[0028] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an assembly mechanism 3 is mounted on the bracket 1. The assembly mechanism 3 includes a fixed frame 301, a support rod 302 mounted on one side of the fixed frame 301, and a chain belt 303 mounted on the support rod 302. The fixed frame 301 provides support to facilitate the installation of the support rod 302. The support rod 302 facilitates the sliding action of the sliding module 304, thereby enabling the sliding module 304 to drive the movement of the robot arm 306. The chain belt 303 can be moved according to the movement of the sliding module 304, thus ensuring that the chain belt 303 can be connected to the robot arm 306.
[0029] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the support 1 is equipped with a tube alignment module 205, and a vibrating strip 204 is connected to the tube alignment module 205. The vibrating strip 204 and the tube alignment module 205 have grooves that match the bead strip 101. The installation of the tube alignment module 205 facilitates the alignment of the bead strip 101, thus making it easier for the assembly mechanism 3 to clamp the bead strip 101. A support block 206 is installed on the support 1, and the tube alignment module 205 is installed on the support block 206. A vibrator 207 is installed on the support 1, and the vibrating strip 204 is installed on the vibrator 207. The installation of the support block 206 facilitates the support of the tube straightening module 205, thereby ensuring that the vibrating strip 204 can be properly connected into the tube straightening module 205. This facilitates the movement of the robot arm 306 to process the bead strip 101 inside the tube straightening module 205. The installation of the vibrator 207 facilitates the vibration function, thereby assisting the movement of the bead strip 101 inside the vibrating strip 204 during vibration.
[0030] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a sliding module 304 is slidably mounted on the support rod 302, and the chain belt 303 is connected to the sliding module 304. The installation of the sliding module 304 facilitates the movement of the chain belt 303 and the robot arm 306, ensuring the stability of the robot arm 306's movement. A threaded rod 305 is rotatably mounted on one side of the support rod 302, and the sliding module 304 is slidably mounted on the threaded rod 305. A second motor is mounted on one end of the threaded rod 305. The installation of the threaded rod 305 enables rotational movement, which facilitates the movement of the sliding module 304. The robot arm 306 is mounted below the sliding module 304, matching the tube straightening module 205, and is electrically connected to the chain belt 303. The installation of the robot arm 306 facilitates the subsequent clamping of the bead strip 101 for product assembly, facilitating subsequent production work.
[0031] During use, several beads 101 are poured into the vibratory feeder 202. Then, the first motor is started, which drives the turntable inside the vibratory feeder 202 to rotate. When the turntable rotates, it drives the beads 101 to move, so that the beads 101 enter the vibratory bar 204. Since the beads 101 are equipped with rotating beads 102, the beads 101 that enter the vibratory bar 204 will be continuously pushed and run. When they run into the tube straightening module 205, the second motor can drive the threaded rod 305 to rotate, so the sliding module 304 will drive the chain belt 303 and the robot arm 306 to move. Therefore, the robot arm 306 can clamp the beads 101 on the tube straightening module 205, which facilitates the subsequent assembly work, thus realizing automated transportation.
